What Wearers Say
Lattafa Oud Mood Reminiscence
One owner enjoys a dewy, spiced rose, earthy patchouli and a mossy, woody drydown, with oud staying in the background.
Another wearer finds it very powdery and prefers original Oud Mood. The first owner describes moderate projection that moves closer to the skin.
Maison Francis Kurkdjian Baccarat Rouge 540 Extrait de Parfum
A sample wearer enjoys the noticeable almond character on skin. Another Extrait owner loves its mixture of airy sweetness and substantial presence.
One wearer finds the almond impression chalky and orange-like, preferring the EDP’s lighter character. Another owner finds the Extrait heavy and dense yet difficult to smell on themselves.
The Verdict
The BR540 Extrait is our pick, because Reminiscence is a rose perfume. Its notes are rose, saffron and cinnamon, then patchouli and dry amber, over vanilla, musk, oakmoss and oud: warm and spiced. The Extrait is jasmine and bitter almond over ambergris, woody amber and musk, with ethyl maltol. Choose Reminiscence for rose and cinnamon.
